Dear Maintainer,

your package installs files related to udev and systemd, into /lib.
These files need to be moved to /usr/lib as part of Debian's
usr-merge effort [1].

Attached you will find a patch to delegate the exact placement of
the udev/systemd files to udev.pc/systemd.pc (using pkg-config).
This should work today
in unstable and, if necessary, for bookworm. Once udev.pc in
unstable points to /usr/lib your package will benefit automatically
after a binNMU or any other upload. systemd.pc was already updated
in unstable.

Later during the trixie cycle I expect this bug class to raise in
priority.

Per the wiki, it is advisable to upload to experimental first, and
wait a few days for the dumat tool to check your package. The same
is advisable when any structural changes are done in the trixie
cycle.

Thank you for considering,
Chris
